Video: How the U.S. National Parks Are Attempting to Lure More Minority Visitors

Unfortunately, most of those visitors are white, with few minorities sprinkled in here and there.

In this video, we see how those efforts are being conducted with the hopes of getting more people of color to experience the outdoors as well.
